telegram has been received in this city
from Fort Gibson, I. T., stating that Mr..

ST. LOUIS, Mo, April 8.-AuOther pri-

Mr.. R. G. Kerens, q near personal
friend of Mr.. Blaine, accompanied by
DR.. h. II. Mudd, q prominent physician
of this city. left here at D. m. by special
train for Fort Gibson. None of the cir
cumstsnces leading up to Mr.. Blaine's

8 physician from here goes to see and
perhaps to attend Mr.. Blaine in face
of the probable fact that there is a skill

he is or is likely to be seriously III. To
determine this, however, further advices

DUTIES ON GRAIN.
One OF the Most Absurd Feature OF High
Protective Policy.

One of the Most Absurd Feature OF High
Protective Policy.
The most ludicrous part of our tariff
is that which imposes duties on farm
products. 1t actually imposes a duty
of 20 cents a bushel on imported wheat;
10 cents a bushel on Indian corn, oats
and cornmeal; 20 per cent on flour;
81 ton on hay; 20 per cent. on ami
mails; cent a pound on beef and pork;
2 cents pound on hams and bacon; 2
cents a pound on lard and cents a
pound on butter. These duties do not
have any effect whatever, except to pro-.
tect few farmers in New England
against Canadian competition; they do
not benefit the real farming interest OF
the country in the slightest degree, and
were never intended to. Our farm ers
raise hundreds of millions of dollars
worth of these articles for export; in
deed, these articles make up the mass
of our exports; we raise them and send
them to Europe, where they successfully
compete with similar articles produced
there. Indeed, SO ineffective are the
duties on grain and other farm prod
ucts that not one farmer in twenty
knows that such duties exist. The
only agricultural products really bene-
fitted by our tariff are sugar and rice
and these are raised only by a few
planters in Louisiana and South Car
DINA
Our duties on farm products are a
bald cheat and fraud for the delusion
of Western farmers. The protective
tariff was devised for the benefit of
Eastern manufacturers alone; but de-
cency required that this fact should be
concealed and some pretence of equal
ity be maintained and this is accom-
pished by levying duties on farm
products that are never imported, and
can not be imported. The Western
farmer is made to pay protective duty
on nearly every thing he buys-salt
sugar, rice, clothing, fencing wire,
lumber and tools-but not one cent OF
protection does he get for himself -

saddled his horse and, putting on his

KurrogIou at that time was hunting

fore him, and, thinking that he saw a

The first night that John 81. reached

was very early. In fact, it was early
morning.
He took off his boots. managed to

So far all was good. He Invested

1t was discovered that his back was bro

put to bed, and has ever since been unable
to leave it. For twenty-six years he has re-
posed on his right side, from which posi-
ton he has been unable to move. He is in
constant agony, and his attendants rarely
touch him, so acute is the pain.
For six years he has been unable to sit
up in bed, and just before he was COM
peeled to abandon the effort his cries could
be heard long way from the house. Hun
dreds of physicians have visited the man,
but not one has been able to afford him
any relief. He has had over two hundred
attacks Of erysipelas. Three thousand
ounces of Iaudanum and two hundred
boxes of pills have been given him TO quiet
the pain, but all to no avail.
His wife died of a broken heart several
years ago, and two children followed
shortly afterward. Two daughters, who
were sent out West twenty eight years
ago, have since married. but neither has
seen the father during that time. Mr..
